Small Business Server Internet Connection Firewall was not linked to PreSp2 WMI Filter under Group Policy Management Console

We tried to Link Small Business Server Internet Connection Firewall to PreSp2 WMI Filter and we got the following error message.---------------------------Group Policy Management---------------------------Initialization failure---------------------------OK ---------------------------

We checked the gPCWQLFilter Attribute value using Adsiedit Tool for CN={AF28D61E-2708-4100-AA38-0754B709A042}, CN=Policies, CN=System, DC=Domain, DC=local, gPCWQLFilter has attribute Value [OEMSBSDN-3380.local;{A4B1B2CE-FD58-40FC-9B17-7BB1888DD03A};0] so we Changed it to [Domain.local;{A4B1B2CE-FD58-40FC-9B17-7BB1888DD03A};0]

After making these changes we were able to Link Small Business Server Internet Connection Firewall Policy to PreSp2 WMI Filter under Group Policy Management Console
